VHS: Carzone E2

Welcome to the Carzone! I'm Jimmy...

...and I'm his brother Fred. Today we're talkin' engines.

Let's start with the basics. That metal thing that makes noises under your hood...

That's the engine? I'm learning somethin' new every day!

Stick with a car long enough, or get into a few fender benders...

...and your engine might start smoking and going funny. So what do you do?

Just get a new car!

That's very expensive Fred. Maybe your engine's easy to fix.

First, do the obvious. Check your gas tank has fuel, and your battery's charged.

If it's just a noise problem, you might need a muffler.

But if it's something more serious, you're going to need some engine parts.

If you don't have any, ask at your local scrapyard...

...or take a wrench and dismantle an old car, if you have one, and the skills!

Then just replace the parts that are going funny.

Wow! I fixed it all by myself!

Fred, you replaced the engine with a hamster in a bean can. That won't work!

Aw dang...

Fred and Jimmy in the Carzone!
